David Majda 05a6bad989 Kill the \|toSource\| method, introduce the \|output\| option Before this commit, \|PEG.buildParser\| always returned a parser object. The only way to get its source code was to call the \|toSource\| method on it. While this method worked for parsers produced by \|PEG.buildParser\| directly, it didn't work for parsers instantiated by executing their source code. In other words, it was unreliable. This commit remvoes the \|toSource\| method on generated parsers and introduces a new \|output\| option to \|PEG.buildParser\|. It allows callers to specify whether they want to get back the parser object (\|options.output === "parser"\|) or its source code (\|options.output === "source"\|). This is much better and more reliable API.		2012-11-11 18:18:52 +01:00

PEG.js Spec Suite
=================

This is the PEG.js spec suite. It ensures PEG.js works correctly. All specs
should always pass on all supported platforms.

Running in a browser
--------------------

  1. Make sure you have Node.js and all the development dependencies specified
     in package.json installed.

  2. Run the following command in the PEG.js root directory (one level up from
     this one):

       make browser

  3. Start a web server and make it serve the PEG.js root directory.

  4. Point your browser to an URL corresponding to the index.html file.

  5. Watch the specs pass (or fail).

If you have Python installed, you can fulfill steps 3 and 4 by running the
following command in the PEG.js root directory

  python -m SimpleHTTPServer

and loading http://localhost:8000/spec/index.html in your browser.

Running from a command-line
---------------------------

  1. Make sure you have Node.js and all the development dependencies specified
     in package.json installed.

  2. Run the following command in the PEG.js root directory (one level up from
     this one):

       make spec

  3. Watch the specs pass (or fail).
